Hi All,

Anyone know how to stop it timing out after 10 minutes?

I have made all the necessary changes to Vista ultimate (64bit) and if I connect using the normal terminal services or a pc there are no time out issues at all. With the WM6 version, it breaks the connection after exactly 10 minutes. I have keepalive set on the pc as well as the group policy and as said other clients do not time out, only the WM6 version (on both my handhelds).

The main one I want it to stop timing out on is a Dell Axim 51v which I have built into my bathroom wall to control the media center on the vista ultimate machine (radio, music etc in the bathroom). The vista machine has been hacked to allow multiple RDP connections and this works fine - as mentioned above.

Unfortunately media center won't open with the dell provided terminal services application as it needs a higher colour depth.

I have scoured the web and have found one other person with the same issue but no solutions. (Could there be a registry setting??).

I don't want to use other software like z2remote as this will mean that I will have to log into the console session on the PC and that would be a real pain....

Any help would be great,

YOU WROTE THIS IN THE BOARD


However, I am not able to RDP into the machine from the PDA.
I have use WINS names, DNS names, IPs with no success.

I get:
"Cannot connect.
Likely reasons are:
1. Specified computer name or ip does not exit
2. A network error occured while establishing the connection. "

Any idea?

THEN YOU SAID NEVER MIND



CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE STEP YOU FOLLOWED TO MAKE THIS WORK CAUSE I GET THE SAME PROBLEM...

Can I access a computer that has XP Home version or do I need Professional. If Professional is needed is there a work around?

Also, is there some web site that describes how it works on the client end and a step by step routine for overall set up?

Quick question on this: Is it possible to force the screen resolution on the desktop you are connecting to? When I RDP onto our Terminal Server it sets the screen res down from 1280 to 800 x 600, is there any way to stop this?

Hello, I'm having VPN issues. I had a Treo 700Wx and used RDP on WM5 constantly. I had it running perfectly using VPN to get to my work so I could administer Servers.

Now with my Mogul (which I love so far, despite the winers) I was disappointed with the lack of RDP. I installed your CAB and it remotes beautifully with WiFi at my office.

I've setup VPN just as I did with WM5, but it won't connect via RDP. I did test and using just IE it will dial up my VPN as it should to the exception I entered.

I'm guessing there is a hook or reg setting missing in the RDP cab.

Anyone have the ability to help??

Did you read my posts...#22 and #29?

No - there's no registry setting to alter on the mobile RDP. It's how you may have the connection set up from your device to access the cellular network/internet.

Do you have a dataplan? I know you mentioned you got it working via wifi, but I'm starting to notice more and more people are getting cellular and wifi network connection mixed up, or assume it's the same thing, but it's not.

Anyways, check the posts mentioned here, and double check again. Then get back here and we'll assist you when we can.

Been using it for over a year, and never been able to manipulate this setting. It's a free add-on, and if you want to alter settings, you'd be better off paying for other VPN/RDP mobile applications like Moca and R2Remote or something like that.

Yes I understand the difference...

WiFi that 802.11g stuff, works fine as I am on my private network.

Sprint Unlimited Dataplan on the CDMA network I need to Dial my VPN to get access to my corporate lan.

The Hacked CAB provided here, doesn't seem to have the ability to dial my VPN based on my Exception rules in my Connection properties. I have set up fresh box on my DMZ and I can connect to it, so the RDP is initiating the CDMA network just fine.

I have found that if I stop Direct Push and Manually dial my VPN under connections over the Sprint CDMA network I can use your RDP without error. (leaving DP on, disconnects my VPN as it wants to sync)

All I'm asking is for the RDP to automatically dial my VPN based on my exception rules.

Just curious if anyone else has experienced an inability to move about the screen. I got the cab to install on my dash - I can connect to a remote server, login (keyboard works fine) but then I'm stuck. Can't pan around the screen - directional pad does nothing.

Anyone else see this?

Install it on your mobile device, not on the card.
You'll have to uninstall, and do it again.

Yup, not to the card, still won't dial my VPN.

Seems to work well without scrolling using Nyditot screen res app.
